What to do after a Head Injury from a Car Accident | Personal Injury with Attorney Andrew Plagge
With car accidents, head injury is among the most common injuries. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) report that motor vehicle accidents were responsible for 25% of all TBI-related hospitalizations in 2016, and 24.5% in 2017. That makes car crashes the second most common cause of TBI, just behind falls. Other common causes of TBI include sports injuries and assault.
TBIs can range in severity, from fairly mild to life-threatening. But they’re not the only head injury to be worried about. They’re hard to detect without medical attention. Even if you feel fine after a car crash, seek medical attention as soon as possible. Some injuries and symptoms may not show up right away.
